Both boys walked w my gear and lokon/sticks and helped me set up my stand. It’s 850 yards back and 4 ridges back just off the grassy top of the ridge. Dj has seen 5 rack bucks in 2 morning hunts. This might be the place for me.

Whomp whomp! Nothing showed up. The boys went scouting and found a hot spot. Gonna sit my stand in the morning. Supposed to rain tomorrow so unless it’s raining and not drizzling, I will be in the stand. The boys are going doe hunting. Until tomorrow.

Well only seen a spike this morning before the rain. The boys sat the same tree together and had 2 does walk under them before it was light enough to shoot. Later they seen a doe 100 yards off. Taking the evening off while it rains and sleets.

Well got up to go, blowing 18 w gust to who fucking knows. Drove around my truck in the park w no deer sightings. Got back to the tent and said to myself “can’t kill him here”. Bugged out while boys were sleeping and arrived early enough to not need a light. Climbed tree and called and rattled every 30 minutes. Light flurry of snow, 26 degrees and cloud cover. Nothing seen and nothing moving on 8 cams, 10 o’clock, cold, aggravated and not mad enough to sit w cold feet and hands, I climbed down. Currently sitting at camp in the truck w heater running, wondering if this shit is for me anymore. This is day 15, I’m dragging ass and not motivated. FML

So I went back out like a dummy at 12:30. Wind was getting it and 28 degrees. Didn’t feel real cold as I was warm from the half mile walk through the ridges. Sat there and when the sun went down in the trees the temp fell and I was cold. So cold, I got out at 4:30, I know I missed the prime time but I had enough. You know when you’re so cold your extremities don’t feel right? That’s how I was and had to be careful getting out and walking the first 200 yards. Got a shower and ate a sandwich. Now I’m laying in bed wondering if I’m even gonna go tomorrow at 22 degrees w 10mph wind. I’m worn down and ready to head home.
Hope ya warm up! Any soup and good tunes to help the situation?
A hotel for a night might be what you need!

We good, seeing a deer would help my situation 100%. It’s deer hunting, not deer killing. I am missing the wife, but mainly my special girl Pearl! Duck season opens Saturday, any guesses what and where I will be? Fuck these deer.
